Contradiction with Matthew 6:31-32
These verses suggest that God provides for physical needs without requiring intercession from earthly sources like the earth or the corn, which contrasts with the depiction in Hosea 2:22 of a chain of needs being met through divine intercession.
Matthew 6:31-32: Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
Contradiction with Isaiah 58:11
This verse states that God will satisfy needs directly, which seems to contradict Hosea 2:22 where the provision involves several intermediaries.
Isaiah 58:11: And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. [drought: Heb. droughts] [fail: Heb. lie, or, deceive]
Contradiction with James 1:17
This verse emphasizes that every good gift is from above, which could contradict Hosea 2:22's implication that blessings are also dependent on earthly intermediaries.
James 1:17: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Contradiction with Philippians 4:19
While Hosea 2:22 involves multiple layers for provision, this verse indicates that God directly supplies every need.
Philippians 4:19: But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Contradiction with Psalm 23:1
This verse signifies that the Lord provides all on His own, without intermediary steps like in Hosea 2:22.
Psalm 23:1: [A Psalm of David.] The LORD [is] my shepherd; I shall not want.
